What makes it different from others?

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Fantastic!

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

The hype of Battlebots turned up to 11. At least with Battlebots you can fast forward to the interesting parts. Namely the fights. With Robot Wars the obnoxious "radio voice" announcer never shuts up and the fight is not so much operator skill and builder creativity as random metal boxes running into each other with other stuff happening. A classic example of not understanding what makes a show entertaining and turning up every other factor. The producers should be taken out and beaten with a pneumatic cylinder.

When I was about 5 or 6 my dad told me about a TV show he'd seen that he thought I might enjoy. So we sat down to watch Robot Wars; it was love at first sight and it's remained my favorite TV show ever since.The show presents some amazingly designed machines and we get to see them all destroy each other in some truly spectacular battles. In addition to the contestant robots, there are also the legendary house robots. All Hail Sir Killalot!I was absolutely gutted when Robot Wars was taken off the air but those 12 years were worth the wait to see the brand new series.It was quite different to the original series but I don't think that was necessarily a bad thing. It would definitely have not been the same without the watchful eye of judge Noel Sharkey or the enthusiastic commentary of Jonathan Pearce. If you have an interest in engineering, then Robot Wars is definitely a show you would enjoy.Sadly this programme has once again been pulled from our screens but we can only hope that it'll return again one day......

The new series (2016/17)is now compered by Dara O'Brian (or is that NO'Brain) complete and utter rubbish. The original premise for this show was brill but i think they should have left this in the skip.. The US show Battlebots makes this show look cheap and tacky. it's pretty hard to do a review, because they insist on ten lines or more. Thats a pretty tall order for this show. The robots are basically crap, i mean come on guys .... MDF robots in 2016. Five seconds and it was in the log pile. what i have seen so far, most of the machines (use the word loosely) have large pneumatic tyres, well exposed and easily damaged and the Christmas special with celebrities (again use the word sparingly) was even worse.. As i said find a skip :0)

It's a great show, robots fighting each other. Then there are the house robots... very strong robots. All robots have to move through a course and fight each other, at the end of the show there's a finale. The best robot's are fighting each other and the house robots are also there.
